Re: Mr Pickles
Consider too that Christianity persecuted not just Jews but pagans (witches), heretics and justified the slave trade. That doesn't make Jesus bad since he never claimed he was the son of God. Orthodoxy came about centuries after his death. "According to Taylor, the Christian religion, or, as he...

Re: Mr Pickles
Why are Jews always blamed? They are often not Christian but of a minority religion. I'm not Jewish but I don't believe Jesus was the son of God either and neither did gnostics. So, it's all based on culture and religion. Jews are just normal people though they test higher I.Q. than Europeans and A...

Re: Mr Pickles
There's a passage I can forward from Apuleius's witchcraft trial in the 2nd century A.D. He was of mixed race and not Roman. His native language was Phoenician and Phoenician is a Semitic language, modern Hebrew alone comes closest to it. Apuleius states his race is of no consequence but only virtue...

Re: Mr Pickles
"These are the matters our quietvoice took up, and I agreed with her on that much. When the overt racism kicked in, along with bluntly expressed rage that you and I didn't take up "her" information... well, that was too much for me." I think much as Q.V. would protest my view, sh...

Re: Mr Pickles
"There was endless newspaper and TV coverage to make people think a deadly pandemic was a threat to everybody." Consider two types of opposing social hysteria: The virus started off as of major concern but not hysteria. It was possibly dangerous to those with severe health conditions and t...

Re: Mr Pickles
Here is the film link. I didn't see it so much as one man's paranormal experiences after the crash but more a beautiful story about life after death. Nice music in the film too.

Re: Mr Pickles
Last night myself and the puss were lying on the large bed and I was watching "Passengers" on DVD. This is the film about the plane crash and a female psychologist who has to give group therapy to the survivors of the crash. She falls in love with one man who survived. Yet, they are all of...

Re: Mr Pickles
Other mammals are as individual as people are. My mother-in-law's present cat sleeps on her bed during the day but gets shut out at night. M-I-L is never without a cat. She gets them from the Cats Protection people and had a bad run for a while because several were on their last legs when she took ...

Re: Mr Pickles
"How much would self-esteem figure in that, do you think? If we're comfortable with ourselves we're unlikely to be swayed, but most young people are looking for validation and popularity." I think what we see is an impulse to create a negative reality and you now see this in society. At th...

Re: Mr Pickles
The cat follows me everywhere to the amazement of people. He sleeps next to me usually. I figured the connection is my brain is very non social and inward as is the case with cats, though cats are extremely solitary. He still struggles to understand sharing space so just plonks himself on the bed at...
